E-PARASITE Act. PROTECT IP Act impact on game design

What is the E-Parasite and Protect Ip act? In this post I will answer all of the common questions about these two subjects. In summary the E-Parasite and Protect-Ip act are a attempt by the senate to block certian ports, routers, and sites from being able to be accessed by the public. This creates a monumental problem for game designers as well as the common gamer and internet surfer. For those of you who do not know ports and routers are what your computer uses to access information from the internet in a timely way. By blocking certian ports and access points the senate will effectivly go under the list of nations with extreme censorship. Some other nations on the list include Iraq, Iran, Egypt, Russia, China, North Korea, and Australia. Do we, the United States of America want to be in the same league as these countries? Ok, now onto what the senate thinks thses two acts will do. The senate wrongly believes that by instituting these acts they will stop internet piracy. Not only is the stupidest idea I have ever scene put on paper, but, it will actuly increace the very things that they wish to stop. I believe that the government should get someone who understands the world of computers and computer programing before making themselves look stupid. At least have a valid excuse to do something stupid, dont just pull something out of a brainstorming hats.

Facebook in School Debate

Facebook is often blocked in schools and collages due to the thought that social media "hinders the ability to learn". Here I will explain why that statement is untrue, but that the reverse is actuly true.
What many people do not understand about facebook is the ease of use compared to other programs to get in touch with people. I personaly use facebook primarely to get in touch with my fellow game designers. Not only is using facebook easyer than for example placing a call, it also allows you to post things on the infomous wall. Me and my friends use the wall content of facebook to create meetings, and destribute the dates and time of zed meetings.

Best gaming design laptops that can be used for gaming

If I were to ask any of you reading this what the best game design laptops are most of you would say somethig like Alienware or Asus. These are great gaming computers but lack the inovative design of other laptops that are used for graphic design. This will be a top 3 list basted on price, preformance, durability, and size.

#3 The Dell Inspiron 14Z
Although this laptop lacks the computing power of a high end laptop it is still able to do game design suprisingly well. It is 4.32 pounds with a 14 inch screen and upgradeable to a i7 processer and able to support nVida graphics cards suprisingly well. Also with a base price of just $599 usd what can go wrong.

#2 EUROCOM Panther 2.0
If it were not for the price of this product it would easly have taken the #1 spot. The panther 2.0 has a fully upgradeable platform, meaning that you can create a computer with the specs you need. As all game designers know the programs required for a proper game design laptop take up mych of the hard drive, which is not only annoying, but also slows down your computer to a almost snail like speed. Because of the EUROCOM created a laptop that has not one, not 2, but 4 harddrives. This creates a laptop with posable capacity of 4.0 terabites, which is unherd of. Its power supply is 300 watts, which makes it the only laptop with the ability to create games, while not needing to be plugged into for a good 3-4 hours. With all this the weight of the laptop with all the acceseries ( ac adapter and a small 256 solid state external harddrive) comes out to a suprising low 10.6 pounds. As I stated at the beginning however with a base price of $2800 it is not the first on my list.

#1 Lenevo Think Pad W Series
This product is bar none for design. Coming standerd with a i7 processer with 6 cores 8 gigs of ddr3 and a nVida with 2 gigs of ddr3 and a retal price of just $1100 nuff said. If you are doing graphic design for collage, or a job this is the laptop for you. Most preformance for the money and highly portable with a weight of just over 8 pounds. Just get it.
